    Description

    The bag size measures 12x8 in.
    Purchased with a lot of 50+ other items in an auction of a man who served in the Pacific Theater. This is one of the most unique comfort bags because it is full of Kanji and Imperial Stamps. Has a very rare and unique imperial stamp with what appears to be a sword, helmet, etc. on it!
    Comfort bag
    (
    慰問袋
    ,
    imon-bukuro
    ) was a gift packet prepared by civilians to be sent to
    Imperial Japanese Military
    soldiers for the purpose of encouraging them. The bag contains comfort articles (
    慰問品
    ,
    imon-hin
    ) not issued by the Japanese Military, such as toiletries, dried fruits, canned foods, and letters of encouragement. Bags were prepared by schoolgirls or local patriotic women's societies. These activities were also made in
    Korea
    , which was then under
    Japanese rule
    , to encourage Korean soldiers in the Imperial Japanese Military.
